He called the Bush family a "political dynasty," from President Bush's father who was a Connecticut senator through son George, Jr. who was recently elected governor of Texas. Dr. Beschloss examined President Bush's political career, referring to "echoes of Eisenhower's" character, the significance of his move to Texas, and other influences. He also described character traits such as Vice President Bush's loyalty during President Reagan's administration.

He focused on how Mr. Carter's apparent failure to solve any large crisis, such as the Iranian hostage situation, and his lack of firm ideology hurt his public image. He also talked about his successful post-presidential career but emphasized that his presidency should be judged on its own merits. He repeated many times that Jimmy Carter was, relatively speaking, a saint in the political arena because of his commitment to human rights as a fundamental basis for foreign policy. After his prepared remarks, Mr. Hertzberg took questions from the audience.http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/63612-1

Mr. Cannon was chief of staff to former Senator Howard Baker (D-TN). He described President Ford as a "good and honest man, a workhorse of a congressman" who, as an unelected president, stepped into the breach in one of the darkest periods of U.S. history. The controversial presidential pardon of former President Nixon, which President Ford justified as "best for the country," was an example of his "courage to do what is right regardless of the political consequences." President Ford's worst moment was the U.S. loss in the Vietnam War and the withdrawal from Saigon, and one of his best was signing the Helsinki Agreement against strong opposition. Cannon said that President Ford "restored the integrity of the presidency by the example of his own honesty and forthrightness." Following his prepared remarks, Mr. Cannon took questions from the audience. Mr. Cannon is the author of [Time and Chance: Gerald Ford's Appointment with History.]http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/63438-1

Kennedy. Dr. Reeves observed that Kennedy's private struggle with Addison's disease and his belief that he would die young prompted him to take risks and act with immoderate speed, such as seeking the presidency when he was "too young." "John Kennedy did not think the rules applied to him. He did whatever he could get away with," and he valued courage above all else. During his brief term of office, there were tremendous changes in the world, including 31 new members accepted into the United Nations. Also, a coup changed the government of Vietnam, with the secret support of Kennedy. During this time the civil rights movement in the U.S. began. Dr. Reeves pointed out that Kennedy was a secret "co-contractor" in the building of the Berlin Wall.http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/63060-1
